- In today's video I finally get to experience my very first Orlando Informer Meetup which is a super fun and limited after hours event at both of the Universal Orlando theme parks. The coolest thing about this meetup is you will have little to no wait times for every single participating attraction at both parks including Hagrid's and the Velocicoaster! Plus unlimited food and non alcoholic beverages! Oh yeah and exclusive meet and greets with some huge Universal characters. I show you everything that you need to know about this awesome event plus I take you along on our very eventful and fun evening at Universal Orlando. I want to say a huge thank you to the team at Orlando Informer for having us out. Thank you so much for watching, if you enjoyed this video please give it a big thumbs up!

Just so you the viewers know, you don't have to wait until the park closes to ride rides, once you are admitted at five, you can ride with the day guests.
In the normal line or express pass line?

As a Team Member - I love to work during the Informer Meetups!
I love the Orlando Informer meet ups.I love being able to try so many food items with the cost already included in the ticket price,especially being able to try all the types of butterbeer drinks 🍺.I love having the chance to ride the Pteranodon Flyers,without having to be accompanied by a child, lol.I love how empty the parks are during this time,very little time waiting in line,like having an Express Express pass and in my opinion the ticket price for all this is very reasonable.Thank you Dev❤️
So do you know how much it is per person
@@maryhall7555I went 2 summers ago. If I remember correctly it was about 310 per person for both nights. We loved it!
@@judiplaz they went up to around 380 and reduced servings
Thanks for taking the time to chat last night, the OI Meetups are a complete vibe. Solid coverage of the event in this vid as always!! 👏🏼
Great video Dev.
After watching this video as well as other you share, I thought of the cast members and vendors that work there. You are one vlogger who always acknowledges the workers( not that others don't ) but you seem to do it more.
Would you be able to do a Vendor Vlog , where you interview some of the vendors and facilities, those who , handle mechanics like driving the floats. Maybe a few min interview with them would be interesting. Just to see or hear about some interesting parts to their job. 🌺🧡
Thank you for sharing and thank you in advance.
This event looks amazing!!!! I want to go now!! You 2 are making me hyped for you!!
The " you still owe me 5 dollars" took me out!! Lol! Love The Grinch
Thank you for this awesome video! I'm attending my first meet up this winter and can't wait!
Lol the Sapranos Grinch was hilarious! ' You come onto my ma snowflake?" Lol
I must go and bring the teens!! Thanks for giving all the information Dev.👏😀
I love the unlimited butter beer 🍺
This sounds like a great deal. We want to take my son to universal for graduation in 2024. I will have to see when they offer this. He would love it.
I LOOVE Universal content!! Yess! 🩶💯
Glad you finally got to attend one of these events. I went last June 2021, it was my first, and hope to get back again next year. It is. It is truly a great event being able to ride so many rides with hardly any lines and having tons of fabulous food for free. It was fantastic. So glad you enjoyed it.
The Grinch's grinchitude has me in stiches!🤣😂🤣
Thanks Dev!! Awesome!
I never knew this what the orlando informer was!!! I think I need to check this out!!! This is amazing!!!
You and the family would have a ton of fun Doc!
This was great! Thanks for sharing!
Dev definitely enjoyed this video. I loved how happy you guys were enjoying the evening out together. Love universal. Not to mention this informer event vs you know the other company with their Xmas party. This is better and worth the money. All you getting is cookies and hot chocolate. I hope universal keeps trying to please the ppl!
Great vlog as always Dev. After sleeping on this idea and researching it more, I think it would be difficult to eat that much food that late and mix in a bunch of roller coasters and thrill rides. Since the best value is to purchase the 2-day pass, I would probably spend Friday eating around the parks & Saturday mostly riding all of the rides ( multiple times). It certainly is a fantastic way to visit both parks and not have to deal with large crowds and long wait times.
Highly recommend doing this! The food is so good
WOW Dev & Bianca the Orlando Informer is the way to go! Fantastic!! AMAZING! Thanks for all of the information! MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎅 🎄 🧑🎄 Love to you and Bianca!
Best advertisement! I want to go!
Went to my first OI meet up last year and it was a blast! I cant wait to go again :) It’s fun seeing the parks at low capacity.
It’s the best deal for going and the only time of the year we go to Universal. Having both parks with light crowds and lots of great food and drinks. Even the adult beverages that are offered have great prices. Stoked you got to experience it! Merry Christmas dude!
Wow wow I loved the Orlando Meet up. Universal has always known how to do everything better. They really try to please their guests. The food was awesome I also would have had to have a Mummy slider because why not? Thanks to you and Bianca for a super evening.
Yay! So glad you are doing this with us!! Full bellies and rides....😵💫
We attended our 4th OI Meetup a few weeks ago. They're AWESOME!!!
Wow never heard of this event before, looks pretty cool 😍
my first time at Orlando and I got to experience Orlando informer during Christmas !! It was so exciting.
So glad you finally went to this! My mom and I went last year for the November meet up and it was the best experience, it's the only way we'll go to the parks now. You also get half off the hotels next to Universal during their weekend. We will be going next November!
My mom did a walk-on the mummy three times in a row, her favorite ride
I’m going in February. So excited 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks Dev really enjoyed this video, you sold it well for me,going to the next informer in February, cant wait :)
I see you mentioned a few times that the price is for both nights. We went on December 3 and bought one night only tickets. You could buy single night tickets or buy both nights, but it wasn’t the same price to go on both nights, it was more expensive to do both. It was our first meet up as well and we’re premiere pass holders so I never thought I needed to buy this event. I was sold on it when we went and had no crowds. We walked on Velocicoaster and only waited for Hagrid’s. Everything was a walk on that night and the apple pie at The Three Broomsticks was life changing.
Thank you dev and Bianca for sharing your adventure from universal studios i really enjoyed watching this video and nice to be nice
Been interested in checking one of their events out. Looks like a great time!
Dev! I’m sold! Planning on taking my kiddo to all of the Orlando parks this summer. Think we need to attended the June meet up. It’s too good of a deal! It will be worth it taking the trip from CA.
Oh cool Dev and Bianca, this is pretty awesome!
I had a blast a my first meetup! Went the 2nd and 3rd of December this year, and already got tickets for the Februrary meet up!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
We were just at Universal and it was my wife’s first time, we saw the informer event on our last day and thanks to your video we’ll be going back for the event next June lol.
You two will have so much fun!
Glad to see you joining in on the Meetup now! Hope to see you at one next year!
I loved the meetup I went to years ago. I want to go to another one for sure.
This looks so awesome. I will definitely check this out one day.
Grinch is always a good character meet & greet :P Unlimited butterbeer is everything
That looked awesome!
Wow for alittle over $230 that is well worth it, for the unlimited rides, beverages, and food. That is a steal.
This was such a fun video. Thanks for sharing Dev.
Oh and 1 more thing! I'm so jealous that you got to meet the Grinch!!
Loving the universal videos! Keep up the great work man. I hope you saw the Royal Caribbean Black Friday deals. I got a 12 day Europe cruise (England, Portugal, France, Amsterdam) for $900 for two people!
Although it is so nice to be able to do the rides with out hardly any wait, I must say having the park empty its a bit boring, I like to see people around, seeing the people smile, kids running around full of happiness and all that is part of the fun and the vacation spirit. I mean I get it, the food and all that is great but I would have to pass just because I think I could get a little bored, maybe with a bunch of friends I can see it. Nice Vid as always tho
I went last week and had the best time! Everything (but Hagrid's) was walk on. Rode some twice in a row! Absolutely stuffed ourselves. My daughter had so much Butterbeer I had to make her stop. 😆
Have fun!!
I have been to several OI Meet ups. The people are always super nice and helpful. It is a great way to experience the parks when your disability get worse in crowds. Also you can enjoy the park at a much nicer pace too. Plus my friend goes several times a year to OI's event at Universal Studios.
I really enjoyed this vlog! I'll be up there Feb 2-5 so I'm going to try to get tickets to it. I never heard of this event before.
You will not regret it
Orlando Informer is such a great option. Thanks for letting know.
What a fantastic night! Interesting that you found The Simpsons Ride a bit rough; I get motion sickness but I can ride this if I’ve taken a travel sickness pill … lasts 8 hours and really helps 😅
I am shocked it was your first time to the informer . We loveed the event and will go again
Dev awesome job on the video. I love going to Universal Studios. My next trip to Orlando will be staying at Universal Studios. I have never been to the meet up. I am glad that you two had a lot of fun.
Yes one time
Gotta experience this one day 💯🔥🔥🔥
The next time I go to Universal I want to go on an Informer meetup. Seems like it’s very much worth the money.
Never been to universal studios but will try this awesome event for sure. Thank again.
Happy holidays pc dev. And thanks for making this amazing vedio
I’ve been going to this event in December what I do at 5 is watch the shows example grinch or the parade then get started on some rides and keep riding rides after the event starts then just eat when I’m done and the $15 gift card they give you never expires you can use them out the parks I usually save mine then I hit up Voodoo Donuts at a later day and for the event you can purchase either Friday or Saturday or buy both
Was there that weekend 😮 was the same path as you guys but 10-20 minutes behind. 🤣 wish we bumped into you guys. Oh an first rule of fight club (Oi)… 😂😂😂
This was my 4th meetup🎉 looks like you had fun.
everyone needs to know that you gotta buy a one day ticket or two day ticket. Tickets are day specific.
The grinch is so funny
Most fantastic tip offered by PCDev to a OI meetup veteran: All this time we never knew that you could get drinks at the self serve kiosks. This allows us to get an iced drink and only get what we can drink at the moment without waste.
I am not crazy about the frozen butter beer either lol I think it is just way too sweet!!! Also, I am with Bianca, team hold on for dear life during the mosasaurus roll over the water 😂
I’m really glad your experience was much better than mine and my husbands back in 2021. I’m not sure what happened but universal did NOT do a very good job clearing the parks. There were a ton of veteran Orlando informer guests that were complaining as well as us first timers. I actually took my phone out and recorded conversations of day guests talking about how no one has asked them for any proof they had tickets, it was cold everyone had jackets hats etc, but they were getting free food, laughing about riding the rides and let me just tell you Hagrids was over an hour and a half wait the ENTIRE night. We were very disappointed because we LOVE parks at night it’s just so beautiful and we were looking forward to the first time riding Hagrids at night, when we spoke to a few other guests and employees they all agreed that something went wrong. As we were walking back to the portofino we had a group of 10 twenty something year old yelling about how awesome it was that no one caught them and they were already telling all their friends the trick to staying in the park and blending in with the event guests. I’m willing to give them one more chance to see if it’s changed, which from the sound of your video and experience they have absolutely fixed the problem, but now I need to convince my husband lol. Thanks for all your updates and REAL HONEST opinions for all the parks. We ❤ you and your family
Got tickets this week to my first Informer meetup thanks to your great video Dev. Otherwise I would have never known about this great event. Also took advantage of the related hotel discounts. I got in the opening day queues for both. At times it seemed like the queue wasn’t working, but I got into both and made my purchases about 30 minutes after they went live. Event tickets are still available days after going on sale, but the discount rooms went pretty quickly. The most expensive rooms sold out first.
I gave you the “how did you hear about us” referral, so look for your free invite to one of the upcoming Adults Only Mini Meetups, with the elevated food experience. How else will we know how it compares? Right OI? Hello?
I was there Friday and Sat. As always my sis and I enjoyed ourselves, but received push back with the attitudes of some team members that clearly didn't like when we would ask for something that had not been sitting out like milkshakes and ice cream. Just like Disney they have made changes as well. I've been to 6 of these and since first going they reduced the eating time frames and reduced offerings but have given a few different ones to offer variety. All in all I still enjoy it because it's a low crowd event but the price hike and reduced quality made me sad this time around
I was there last night ….. I was hoping to see you guys … 😊
We have been at the orlando informer the last two years. It is the best after hour event at any florida park.
Great video! I totally want to do this! 💖☺️
Please do!
@@PCDev
I went last winter, just before thanksgiving- you guys missed the macys parade and the killer food at thunder falls. The key lime cheesecake is to die for. And pro tip for next time- stay out of hogsmeade and diagon alley till later in the night and what little lines there are will disappear.
I was there Saturday it was great
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
He doesn't deserve 140k subs he deserves way more
My best friend and I will be there February 3rd!
I love watching the informer meet up videos. I hope to one day go to one of the meet ups it looks like a lot of fun and food. It definitely seems worth the price especially compared to Disney after hours events. Do you get to ride the Harry Potter Hogwarts express during the event?
Yes you do :)
Never heard of these. Will def keep it in mind. Going to tell my sister's about it. Got one in Davenport and the other in Ruskin. I can't believe the amount of bang for the buck people get.
Hi Dev,
This looks awesome. How can one get tickets for the Orlando Informer?
Thae videos are goood
i went to the orlando informer meet up for the first time last month and i had a blast and i will definitely be doing it again next year it was well worth it luckily i stay in the atlanta, ga area so i'm always down for a quick road trip
I've been to 2 meet ups, Dec 2021 and Dec 2022! They are absolutely amazing and worth every penny. I'm already planning my 3rd meet up. Also, the fact that we get to stay at Hard Rock Hotel or Royal Pacific Hotel or any other Universal hotels at a discounted rate is amazing. I will definitely be going to lots more in the future!
@@melissabudhan664 when i go next year i definitely have to check out one of the Universal hotels i didn't do it last month when i went
I’ll be there Feb 4th
Happy Sunday Dev and Bianca never experience this Orlando Informer. Y’all do amazing adventures. Love all what you do Dev. Thanks for sharing! 🎄🎁
i so happy you change the song for your videos...
It's insane that all the food is free, I must do this :D
That's awesome, I Love the Orlando Informer. Dev how I can get in on that experience?
my oh my Mr Black!..... thank you for these shiwing
Your right Dev you would need to be on like a 48 hour fast before pigging out on all that food.
always love this event, love watching it, have to say the grinch was the highlight of the night he's so funny :) also who is the bird that you hugged i've never seen that charther?
The grinch was the highlight for us also as he was absolutely hilarious! Churro the bird is the Orlando Informer meetup mascot basically.
@@PCDev ah ok thanks for letting me know it was my first time seeing him :)
Question for you. Do they do the Macys parade and Grinchmas during the after hours event? I love Christmas and would make that a priority.
I'm finally feeling better not 100 just yet but I'm getting there covid is no joke
I’m glad to hear you are feeling better!
Most extreme disappointment of the OI meetup this year was the demise of the rib entrée at the Terrace Restaurant. We talked about having those ribs for months. Most impressive employees: The artist making brisket crepes at Central Park (Dec 2-3). The line was long but his skill made it enjoyable. Also, the bus employees at the Terrace Restaurant kept everything clean and orderly. Most extreme enjoyment: Bringing a couple along with us that have NEVER even been to a carnival. We lived vicariously through their enjoyment.
I went in to one during the summer, and it was crowded, was not able to ride a lot of the rides, food lines long as well, maybe it was the time of year I went, but was not impressed at all by it, I may try it again eventually during November or December, maybe it will be like your night, if so then I a worth it
Dev, I'm 68 and ride everything. Don't blame age! 😂
Yea I got to ride the Mummy yesterday for the first time since before the closure and the show part was really off and I was wondering why because I forgot it was in technical rehearsals 🤦🏾♀️ Still fun but not the same 😢
When we went to the OI last summer, my sister got 2 turkey legs. Never seen a 12 year old eat so much 😅
Unfortunately, the OG’s know how good it USED to be. Was here friday for my 7th meet up and it was by far the worst, very disappointing. Glad your night was better!
I’m sorry to hear that Joseph. Could you please explain a bit more?
